Brien Lundin edits a newsletter called Gold Investor, and he also writes a lot of free stuff and runs the New Orleans Investor Conference, so most gold-focused or mining investors will know his name. And I had a few requests for a solution to his little “teaser” pitch at the end of a recent email […]

This teaser comes in from the folks at Stansberry’s Phase 1 Investor service, which is their uber-expensive $5,000 subscription newsletter that purports to find the best opportunities in the smallest stocks. They have developed what they call the L-2 Indicator that tells them when to buy stocks, in this case gold stocks: “the ‘L-2 Indicator’ […]
Here we are on Friday again, and as luck would have it we have before us an interesting teaser for a teensy little company that might have some merit — just the kind of thing I like to focus on for the Friday File, since sending out a stock like this to the whole free […]
Andrew Mickey runs Breakaway Investor and has a new service he’s selling now called Fear and Greed, and he must keep some solid copywriters on the speed dial because we’ve had any number of his teasers get our blood rushing over the past year. This one’s for a “secret market”, which is a technique he […]
This one comes in from Andrew Mickey’s Breakaway Investor — we’ve seen a few of his ideas in the past, with mixed results. Not surprising, since a lot of the companies he likes are very small and make for some volatile investing at times. And it’s a good story, whether or not you end up […]
Christian DeHaemer is perhaps more active than any other newsletter guy I know in his pursuit of the out-of-the-way and dangerous natural resources companies — which means the picks he puts out as teasers for his Crisis and Opportunity newsletter (and previously, with his Crisis Trader for a different publisher) can be even more volatile […]

Nick Hodge started touting a new solar stock last night or this morning, and it’s already driving dozens of reader questions in to Gumshoe HQ. He’s selling subscriptions to his Early Advantage newsletter, which used to be called Alternative Energy Speculator, and he’d like $499 for access to this “free” report. So naturally, I thought […]
Today we’re going to start you out with a quickie teaser solution, and I’m going to keep it quick mostly because this one is largely a connect-the-dots guess, given the limited number of clues that were dropped in the ad. The ad is from Marin Katusa, who went off on his own after leaving Casey […]
OK, I don’t think I’ve ever had to resort to three or four different articles to cover a single teaser ad (at least, not since Stansberry’s “Secret Societies” teaser last Fall), so I hope this third writeup will be the charm for us all, and we’ll not speak again of Andrew Mickey’s Putin-icious masterpiece. The […]
Dan Ferris at Stansberry is pitching his “entry level” newsletter, The Ferris Report ($49/yr) by talking up what he calls the “Green Scare” — which is basically a spiel about how “climate alarmism” is being used by the government to “stretch its tentacles ever further into your home,” a new version of the “Red Scare” […]
Your friendly neighborhood Gumshoe is still working feverishly on the new and improved StockGumshoe.com that we hope to be introducing in the weeks to come, so today we’re sharing an older article that originally appeared in the Irregulars-only Friday File. I’ve shortened the article to remove some of my blather, but it has not been […]
Several readers are asking about this one, so we’ll re-feature it here to help answer some questions. We have not looked at this “Black Solar” stock in more than a year, but it has been teased off and on for more than two years and is still the same stock, still very volatile based largely […]
Yesterday I dug into Marc Lichtenfeld’s teaser pitch about his predicted “Commodity Supercycle” and revealed what he’s hinting at as the three “once in a generation” supercycle stocks… so today, it’s on to the “bonus pick” he talked about in that “presentation.” And it’s that special bonus pick that’s actually the cheapest stock, with the […]
Christian DeHaemer has made quite a career out of picking somewhat controversial resource companies with tiny market caps in war-torn or politically unstable or distasteful areas of the world — and since two of them that he has teased in the past, Petro Matad in Mongolia and Dragon Oil in Turkmenistan, have done very very […]
The pitch I got from Keith Kohl and Jeff Siegel for Green Chip Stocks is a great example of storytelling — Kohl catches your eye with that headline that says “Warren Buffett’s in, are YOU?”, and then links to a spiel from Siegel that talks about how “free electricity” ran some telegraph lines during a […]
Yesterday we looked at the silly “26(f)” promotion for what are, for the most part, conservative and diversified investment vehicles that are suitable for a lot of passive investors… so today we’re doing a full 180 degree turn and looking at a pitch for a crazy and speculative little oil stock. We try to be […]
Here’s a little excerpt from the order form that accompanies Michael Robinson’s latest teaser pitch for Digital Fortunes ($99 first year, renews at $199, 30-day refund period), which is another of the newsletters he inherited from Louis Basenese last year: “For the first time in nearly 200 years, railroad history is about to repeat itself… […]
Today we’re looking for yet another “magic metal” stock, this time it’s teased by Matt Badiali for his Real Wealth Strategist newsletter over at Banyan Hill… and it’s all about this magical “green rock” that has some kind of virus-killing power, so the marketers are really highlighting the COVID-19 angle. Here’s a little of the […]

I have to confess, I love the Indiana Jones stories… the ones about an intrepid explorer who goes against all odds and finds the huge prize. When you translate that to the world of investment newsletters, that usually means that a little company found a huge gold deposit, or an oil basin that nobody else […]
This story was originally published on October 31, 2022. It has not been updated or revised, we’re just re-posting it here to help answer continuing reader questions. Whitney Tilson is out with a new teaser pitch about “SWaB” for his Empire Stock Investor, which is the “entry level” and most mainstream stock-picking letter from Empire […]
More Royalties, Please… The world of precious metals royalties has been quietly changing a bit, with new entrants and some rising interest in gold as inflation concerns have heated up this year, so there are a few updates to share… but first… If you don’t know what royalties are, they’re best thought of as a […]
For much of the past couple years the folks at Casey Research have teased a “secret” kind of gold investment, often calling them “Gold Placements” or “Q Shares,” and I covered one of those pitches that we saw in late 2019, back when E.B. Tucker was still editing this Strategic Trader newsletter… but now we’ve […]

Marin Katusa top 3 stocks to buy now. Which 3 stocks? Thinkolator please (A)Was wondering if the thinkolator or the community could share/decipher this: December 14th text (mail): I’m revealing my top 3 stocks during this year’s tax loss fire sale to a small group of investors. Stock #1 is a premier gold company with a very high-grade deposit… And in a great jurisdiction. I see one particular […]
If newsletter guys know anything, it’s how to sell gold investments — gold has been at the core of the newsletter hype industry since the 1980s, attracting ornery gold bugs every time the gold price rises a bit, so we’re seeing most publishers running quickly to the virtual mailbox with their gold pitches these days… […]
Have you heard anything about New Pacific Metals? Recently recommended by Brien Lundin editor of the Gold Newsletter also David Morgan.
I’m going to get to several updates on Real Money Portfolio stocks at the end, including those questions “What to do with Qualcomm (QCOM)?” … but first, I’m going to go through the stocks where I’ve completed my Annual Review this week. Each year I promise to re-analyze and reconsider my opinion about each stock […]
Happy New Year to the best readers in cyberspace! I hope your 2019 is fabulous… and that you don’t have too many heart palpitations following the last couple weeks of market and political brinksmanship. I haven’t written to you in a while, thanks to my much-appreciated time away with family and friends in the mountains, […]
This is a late continuation of the predecessor thread titled: “Gold, Silver, and Hard Assets…FALL 2017”…from which, I quote: “Everyone makes mistakes and I make more than my share.” Well, I nailed that one. In 2018, overall my picks were not successful. Many of the mining speculations were duds. Plus the commodity price landscape was […]

Casey Research is out with a new Casey Report teaser ad about gold, and it’s strikingly similar to one that they ran back in November of 2016 (that’s about a year and a half ago, for those who are calendar-challenged). Which is no big surprise — once a newsletter publisher finds a theme and a […]
2017 was a year of tremendous accomplishment for Clean Teq Holdings in every respect. We saw remarkable achievements in mine construction, in finance, and in market development, with landmark contracts in every business segment; We saw a complex business appear as if by magic, including business offices on four continents, and the launch of business […]
Marin Katusa has been building up all week to a big new teaser pitch about electric vehicles, and it’s essentially a “lithium and cobalt have already had their run, but copper will be the big winner” argument… so now he’s hinting at some copper miners he thinks you should buy, in hopes that you’ll subscribe […]
This teaser solution originally appeared as part of the Friday File for the Irregulars on June 2, 2017. This excerpt has not been updated or revised, but readers continue to ask about this one so we’re opening up to all readers now. I’ve been inundated with questions about the latest Rick Rule “Interview” from the […]
We’ve got a veritable smorgasbord for you this week — first, a quick update on one of our Real Money Portfolio stocks, then I’ll take a very quick look at the “Seven Deals” teased by the new Rick Rule Alliance pitch by the Money Map folks, and, finally, I’ll dig into the little hints that […]
